Think that’s bad? I watched the History of Sex (on what channel? History Channel of course) and Americans came up with the most ridiculous cover-stories for obviously sexual products and it was often the portal of lots of bad pseudo-science. One example was a “prostate warmer,” which was basically one of the first dry-cell batteries invented, hooked up to a butt-plug like the bit on the product you’re showing us and a lightbulb on the other side.

Prostatic massage was a treatment for chronic prostatitis in the ’40x. I knew a fellow who was a submarine corpsman in WWII who had to give the Captain daily prostate massages while on patrol. He (the Captain) was to be relieved (of command) for medical reasons but he was such a good performer that it kept getting delayed for one more mission. The sub had an impressive score in the Pacific, but hit a mine and is still on patrol. I suppose this device is for guys with short arms or no friends.
